We think that Governor Zulick in the name of common decency, would appoint Tucson man to the position of Con- missioner of Immigration. The only difference between Hughes of the Star, and Parish, Zulick's pet, is that Hughes has been laboring ardently and faithfully fer Arizona and her interests, for the past ten years, whilst Tom Parish has done nothing to advance her interests ether than to inaugurate a few blackmail- ing suits, which have tended in no small degree to retard our prosperity and growth. We leave the public to choose between them.

A1eSHuariA Gazstte.

The GAZETTE is now the Oldest paper IN
the State, and with few exceptions the old.
est in the country, and its usefulness bs.
been demonstrated and appreciated durin,
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS ofits existence 7,
its columns has always been found miro,
of passing events, and the careful chrOpi
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in The
world has ever been its aim. 1t is alwav.
welcomed in the household, while in tho
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for oh.
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis.
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpred that day in
every portion of our OVID domain as well as
from every part of the habitable globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning ~.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York. Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will.
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub
lished regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
monwealth are TO be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily ia
creasing, especially among people who con.
suit its advertising columns before purchas
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country ed
tion-nearly as large as the daly--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
week, and is read by thousands, most Of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages OF sd.
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, al-
parent.
